MRS. PARSONS AT A PICNIC.
She Launches IntO a TRADE Against the
Chicago Police

CHICAGO, July 17.-At the picnic of the
International Brewers and Maltsters
Union, at Ogden's Grove to-day, Mrs. Lucy
Parsons, wife of the condemned Anarchist,
took possession OF a refreshment stand
near the center of the grounds and pro.
ceeded to solicit purchasers for photo
grapl s of her husband and his colleague,
of copies of the Spies biography,
Nina Van Zandt. 4 large crowd soon
gathered around her and the officers of the
Union, who are conservatives" endeav-
ored TO induce Mrs Parsons to withdraw
from the grounds, as they did not wish, by
allowing her to veDd her wares, to identify
themselves with anarchy and bring the
Union into disrePute. Mrs Parsons, how
ever, refused to accede to their request,
claiming that she had a right to be
there and sell the books and pictures for
the benefit of the relief fund. A number of
members OF the Union espoused Mrs Par
sons cause, and the president, William
Hepp, said il she did not go he would re-
sign. At this moment some one in the
crowd shouted to Mrs. Parsons that there
were number of fly cops" watching her,
and that she had better be careful. This
seemed to enrsge the woman, and she
launched into a trade against the police,
saying it was pity Inspector
Bonfeld and all his men did not
ole in the Raymarket square. One
of the detectives present now stepped
up and told her to leave the grounds. She
refused and shouted to the crowd: 81 am
here exercising my rights as an American
citizen in free speech. II you Russians
and Bohemians haven't the courage to do
likewise, you had best go back where you
came FROM" While she was talking
a detective fastened to a neigh
boring telephone and asked his captain for
instructions. He was told not TO modest
Mrs. Parsons as long as she refrained from
speech-making, and so the matter was
dropped. The heavy rain which came up
soon after compelled the female Anarchist
to do what the police and officers of the
Union had been unable-to pack up and
leave.

WAS SHE MURDERED?
Suspicious Death Of an indianapolis Wrmsn
ata Camp Near Columbus.
a Fishing Party, Including Two Prominent
Edinburg Hen, Placed Under Arrest
On q Serious Charge.

COLUMBUS. Ind, July H. [Speciall-
This community was startled this
morning by the report that a woman
had been drowned in White river at the
Azalia bridge, about nine miles below
this place. The report was brought in by
Jerry Cutsinger, of Edinburg, who, with
Riley Spurgir, James Thompson, Frank
Cutsinger and Ed Moore, had been in
camp at that place fishing since last
Thursday. Yesterday evening two women
and little girl came down from in.
dianapolis and were met here by mem.
bers of the fishing party and taken to the
camp. Some time during the night, so
one OF the party stated, noise was heard
in the water and at the same time
Mollie Howe was missing. They all turned
out to look for her and she was found soon
afterward, dead, lying in water not more
than fifteen inches deep.
The coroner Of this county, DR.. s. T.
Norris, was notified and had the body
brought to Peeks undertaking rooms in
this place, where post norton was held.
The skull showed confusion sufficient, the
doctors in attendance say, to cause death
and the condition of the lungs indicated
death before the woman got into the water.
A court of inquiry will be held to morrow
and the facts brought out. 1t is reported
that some OF the party were drunk, but it
is not known whether there was a fight
amongst them or not.
Mrs. Howe's home was at No. $50 South
Delaware street, indianapolis. She was
about forty. five years of age, had sandy
bair, slightly gray, and weighed about $50
pounds. Her daughter is about eight years
of sge. The other woman, Rosa Shuts,
is about twenty-five years old, has black
eyes, dark complexion, and is rather fine
looking. Her home, she says, Is at No. 20
South Delaware street.
The marks on the dead body were of
such suspicious character that warrants
were issued for the entire party, and a
posse under Marshal Hegerty and Deputy
Sheriff Kellar, went down at six O'Clock,
this evening, to arrest them. The remains
of Mrs. Howe will lot be taken
is held. There is considerable excitement
here over the mater, owing to.the prom
inence of the men from Edinburg. Moth
ing is known as to the character of the
women o. the party. Two more women
from Indianapolis were TO join them this
evening, but they were telegraphed not
to come. The officers say there is a strong
sse against all concerned.
The dead woman was known to the
police in this city. and her reputation was
not of the best. Her companion is also of
nl-Iep1te, and is known here by another
name. Marshal Hagerty came here last
night In search of further facts about
them. HeTeported that the entire fishing
party had been placed under arrest.
